proenkephalin
Application Note:
Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:32000.Western Blot:Preliminary experiments gave an approx 40kDa band in Rat Brain lysates after 0.2ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 30.8kDa according to Mouse NP_001002927.1 and 30.9kDa according to Rat NP_058835.1. The 40kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide. We would appreciate any feedback from people in the field - have any results been reported with other antibodies/lysates? Have any further splice variants/modified forms been reported?Immunohistochemistry:Frozen section of Rat Brain (Striatum) shows staining of dense enkephalinergic axon plexus. Frozen section of the Mouse Brain (Stria terminalis) shows staining of a dense enkephalinergic fibre network in the bed nucleus. Recommended concentration, 0.02-0.05ug/ml.
